SUMMARY:BIOSIG 2020
DESCRIPTION:Biometrics provides efficient and reliable solutions to recogni
 ze individuals. With increasing number of identity theft and miss-use incid
 ents we do observe a significant fraud in e-commerce and thus growing inter
 ests on trustworthiness of person authentication. Nowadays we find biometri
 c applications in areas like border control, national ID cards, e-banking, 
 e-commerce, e-health etc. Large-scale applications such as the European Uni
 on SmartBorder Concept, the Visa Information System (VIS) and Unique Identi
 fication (UID) in India require high accuracy and also reliability, interop
 erability, scalability and usability. Many of these are joint requirements 
 also for forensic applications.\n\nMultimodal biometrics combined with fusi
 on techniques can improve recognition performance. Efficient searching or i
 ndexing methods can accelerate identification efficiency. Additionally, qua
 lity of captured biometric samples can strongly influence the performance. 
 Moreover, mobile biometrics is an emerging area and biometrics based smartp
 hones can support deployment and acceptance of biometric systems.\n\nHoweve
 r, concerns about security and privacy cannot be neglected. The relevant te
 chniques in the area of presentation attack detection (liveness detection) 
 and template protection are about to supplement biometric systems, in order
  to improve fake resistance, prevent potential attacks such as cross matchi
 ng, identity theft etc.\n\nThe BIOSIG 2020 conference addresses these issue
 s and will present innovations and best practices that can be transferred i
 nto future applications. The conference is jointly organized by the Compete
 nce Center for Applied Security Technology (CAST), the German Federal Offic
 e for Information Security (BSI), the European Association for Biometrics (
 EAB), the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission (JRC), the TeleT
 rusT-Association, the Norwegian Biometrics Laboratory (NBL), the National R
 esearch Center for Applied Cybersecurity (ATHENE) , the Fraunhofer Institut
 e for Computer Graphics Research  IGD, IET Biometrics Journal and the speci
 al interest group BIOSIG of the Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. (GI). The 
 conference will be technically co-sponsored by IEEE and papers will be adde
 d to IEEE Xplore.\n\nRead our Conference Report.\n\nHere you can find the p
